Winnipeg brokers condemn the Dominion Government for not subsidizing ocean tramp steamers to enter the cattle trade. Only six steamers are available, two British companies own them, and owners offered to fund half the fitting cost if the government covered the rest. With capacity to export 450 cattle per voyage and three trips weekly in summer, annual exports cap at about 45,100 though potential reach could be 100,000. Boat costs align with head capacity at roughly 12 dollars per head.
